CATALOG OF ASTRONOMICAL POSITIONS OF SATURN’S MOONS OBTAINED BY PHOTOGRAPHIC OBSERVATIONS AT THE MAO NASU IN 1961-1991

Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2015, Vol 28, Issue 2

Abstract

In the framework of UkrVO national project the new methods of plate digital image processing are developed. The photographic material of the UkrVO Joint Digital Archive (JDA, http://194.44.35.19/vo-mao/DB/ archivespecial.php) is used for the solution of classic astrometric problem – positional and photometric determinations of objects registered on the plates including Saturn’s moons. The results of tested methods show that the positional RMS errors are better than ±150 mas for both coordinates and photometric ones are better than ±0.20m with the Tycho-2 catalogue as reference.
